The moment Alex appeared mid-air above the void creatures, he pointed out his left hand down and unleashed a blinding light that overwhelmed the large hall, blinding all the void creatures temporarily.

Naturally, he was also blinded. But before that, Alex made sure to memorize the position of multiple void creatures before going blind. Additionally, his light-based abilities allowed him to recover from light attacks much faster than other abilities.

The resounding roars and screeches of the void creatures made their annoyance clear to him. Wasting no time, he dashed to his first target and ran through it with his spear, not forgetting to make the creature go boom.

His vision quickly returned before the flash died down. Taking advantage of that, he swiftly moved around and finished off many more void creatures before they realized what happened.

When their vision returned, Alex was nowhere to be seen as he disappeared into another path.

''Huu... That was a success.'' He thought in delight and looked at the path before him that branched into two sections a few metres away.

He slowly moved forward this time around, as there was no need to rush. The void creatures were still screeching and roaring in the back, and he knew they wouldn''t move unless they saw someone. For whatever reason, those void creatures refused to move unless they saw someone.

Alex got to the junction that split the path he was on into two and did a quick scan to determine his way forward.

"Hmm?"

However, the scan came back positive for both paths. Since the range was short, the algorithm drew a path that had no dead-ends for as far as it could see.

And in this case, both paths showed no dead ends.

Alex created a protective ward around his body in addition to his armour and channelled his mana into the spear. Once he got close to the entrance, he sped up and appeared instantly amid the void creatures, instantly taking out two of them.

This quickly drew their attention and before they could react, Alex had taken out another four, his movement speed overshadowing what the creatures could react to as this time, he was not holding back in the physical department.

His annoyance at being trapped played a big role in his raging emotions at the moment as he let off on the poor creatures.

When the void creatures began moving and shooting their killer beams at him, only a few of them were left and with much more space to manoeuvre, Alex easily evaded their attacks and closed in on them with his spear.

He couldn''t afford flashy techniques as he had to think of his mana capacity, the only limiting factor that limited his abilities. He did, however, unleash one of his special techniques when a void creature was closing in on him while he was dealing with another.

Alex focused the ambient light of his mana into a concentrated, laser-like beam that was capable of burning through most materials and dealing precise, piercing damage. He could adjust the intensity, allowing it to either knock back or incinerate his target depending on the situation.

And in this situation, he decided to incinerate the void creature. He called the skill Solar Lance; of course, he wasn''t going to go around calling out its name whenever he used it in fights. Who does that?

The only issue was it burned a huge chunk of his mana pool. Pointing out two fingers of his left hand, the concentrated beam travelled at astounding speeds and incinerated the incoming void creature, leaving nothing but ashes of its existence.

A few minutes later, Alex was left standing in the ashes, blood and flesh of the void creatures. His facial expression was dark and menacing because of the bits and pieces of flesh and blood splashed on him, but he gave it no thought.

"Now what..."

He wondered as he looked around, not sure what to do.
